And for your bemusement – here is a copy of Giddygeeker’s bad, bad poem (with links to all her inside references):

We welcome you to our 100^th Geekery from Guardians,

And look back for a moment at our past Shenardians.

From Robots with Johnsons to Horrors most Rocky

Thirsty Nomads on Tangents who like to Diss Jockeys

With Mad Kestrels, Bubbas and Snakes smoking Reefer,

Riddles and Daughters and Zombies who Be There,

From Gallifrey’s Coast to Sanctuary Bay

We’re Delighted ToBeHere, we’re Lucky 13 to say.

We know what we drank, we did it with Big Glee

We know Something’s Clever, just ask Chucky Cart-E

We podcasted Atomacon, ConCarolinas and Storm-Con,

We Altered IDs, Wolfed Valentines and Miked Masons,

We found out that Charlotte is sometimes quite Sketchy,

With Mage Warriors, and Bullfrogs, and Cher’s cosplay so fetching,

We’ve hosted Manticorians, Kilted Chefs and a Liar,

Dudes who Revued and Geek Girls who Inspire.

Got academic at Mythgard, and Comic with Kerri,

We meditated with Jessica and Allianced with Harry

Spoke houses quite tiny and derbies most rolly,

Murdered some Fools, and practiced some yogi,

We memoired some Mocha with podcasting’s Rich

And spoke Abubika with almost nary a hitch,

Darryl took us to Pineville, Manscout was hardly a stranger

We Cyphercasted Just 1 Call if we were in danger.

We went Rogue Getting Dead, then we went to Abari,

Told tales with Camori and hosted kids on Safari,

Gamebreax gave us some rhythm, Heroes gave us The Drum,

We were Pursued by a Bear, which made us all run.

With Iron and Blood, we met That Jim Ryan,

And now I am done – so please stop your crying.

Candice Cortinas and Zaq Rogers from Robot Johnson Sketch Comedy Group joins us this week. Both Candice and Zaq have been with RoJo since the very beginning (Halloween 2007). It’s not often you see Candice onstage, but her presence is felt everywhere. And you haven’t lived until you’ve seen Zaq sporting some knee on the main stage. Then again, we just love comedy and the fact that they will be performing at this year’s Geek Gala! Robot Johnson’s next show is April 3rd at Upstage. To find out more about Robot Johnson, visit www.robotjohnson.com.

Guardians of the Geekery Episode 13

Things to Note:

We are sorry about the skips in the Rapid Fire Response Round – we aren’t sure what’s going on. We blame the fact that this is the 13th episode.
There is a game called Squirrel Hunt that is addicting – but Candice didn’t know it existed.
We really are ready to host Con Man at the Geek Gala if they are interested. Really! Have their people call our people.
Superman III was the movie featuring Richard Pryor where Superman turns evil
We looked it up and are surprised to say, there IS a new Knight Rider movie coming out! First there was the Knight Rider series in 1983, then there was Knight Rider 2000 in 1991, then there was a new Knight Rider series in 2008, and now IMDB is showing a Knight Rider 2016 – which turns out to be a comedy short which we have linked below!
My apologies to Melissa McCarthy for calling her Melissa McCartney. Brain damage!
Zaq thinks our kitchen lights look like boobs – to see if you agree, check below.
I tried to embed the video of David Blaine at Harrison Ford’s house – but embedding was disabled. But you can see it here.
Since our recording of this episode, we have found out that the producers of The ABCs of Death have started a crowdfunding campaign for the substitute teacher’s appeal.
If you would like to see the scene from Valmont with Fairuza Balk – click here and turn the age restriction off.
There are no transcripts of Guardians of the Geekery – don’t ask for it!!
Joey does not have a link for the bad writer from Onyx and the Penthouse story from Starneslord better not exist.
We are sorry we cut Zaq off as he went on a spiel about how to say goodbye. Goodbye, Zaq!
